| 1 | NEWS for rsync 2.6.8 (UNRELEASED) |
| 2 | Protocol: 29 (unchanged) |
| 3 | Changes since 2.6.7: |
| 4 | |
| 5 | BUG FIXES: |
| 6 | |
| 7 | - Fixed a bug in the exclude code where an anchored exclude without any |
| 8 | wildcards fails to match an absolute source arg, but only when --relative |
| 9 | is in effect. |
| 10 | |
| 11 | - Improved the I/O code for the generator to fix a potential hang when the |
| 12 | receiver gets an EOF on the socket but the generator's select() call |
| 13 | never indicates that the socket is writable for it to be notified about |
| 14 | the EOF. (This can happen when using stunnel). |
| 15 | |
| 16 | ENHANCEMENTS: |
| 17 | |
| 18 | - The support/rsyncstats script has an improved line-parsing regex that is |
| 19 | easier to read and also allows it to parse syslog-generated lines. |
| 20 | |
| 21 | DEVELOPER RELATED: |
| 22 | |
| 23 | - A new patch was added: log-file.diff. This contains an early version of |
| 24 | a future option, --log-file=FILE, that will allow any rsync to log its |
| 25 | actions to a file (which is only supported by a daemon at present). |
